Lesson 165: The decision of the slave trader

"Now, I don't mind recapturing the children of the elves, do you know where that slave trader is?

"Yeah, I can't pull that off."

To Schwartz's question, Roofigia nods instantly.

Yeah, yeah, no matter if it's a guild request or whatever, information is very important.

If you don't even know where the slave traders are, you have to start by looking.

If you're bringing it so much, the elf children could be sold.

When that happens, there was no respite for time, but that seems to be all right.

That's not why you can relax.

"Still, you sell human informants for a pretty good price. That World Eye kind of informer, look at my feet...... Huh! One day, I'm gonna pay you back for something!

Did Roofigia buy information on slave traders from an informant who was in the back alley?

So I guess I'm in Wang Capital, a human city......

Still, that's another familiar informant's name.

Indeed, the name of the informant Lucille and the others bought the information to help Lucica, who had been invaded by the curse, should also have been World Eye.

It's called Elixir, you really seem to know everything.

"Right. I'll tell you from me, too. He said he was stunned by his master."

Chevalt only distorted his niggardly mouth and said so.

Do you know him? No, it's not that I'm stunned.

"According to the information, the slave traders are not so far from the Wang capital."

Oh, are slave traders not going to trade in the Wang capital?

Well, the deep green forest that Roofigia lives in is not too far from the king's capital.

Can't we have a grand elf deal in that place?

"I know that too, but first of all, the Kingdom of Evan prohibits the trafficking of slaves. These days, I think that simple possession has become a sin and a punishment."

Chevalt taught me politely that I didn't know anything.

With that said, when Queen Nina was once a princess, I feel like I heard such a story while I was escorting her.

Recently, that would mean since she took office as queen.

Again, Queen Nina seems to be working hard too.

Perhaps I'd like Ritter, who's helping her, to do her best as well.

"Probably going to travel to cities in the region where the Queen's authority is difficult to reach, or to countries where slaves are recognized."

Well, Queen Nina is still shallow on the throne, too.

It will take a little longer for her glory to spread throughout the kingdom.

Even so, though yes, it won't take long.

"I can't keep those kids with a slave trader forever. We can't let them get away with this any more."

There was a strong light in Luffigia's eyes.

All right, we'll do our best to help!

I don't know how far I can help, but I'm going to do my best for what I've been asked to do.

I don't know if the very existence of slavery is right or wrong, but I personally don't think it's very preferable.

"... right"

Schwartz is also nodding.

Although I couldn't really read her expression like that, there was a time when she seemed to have made a roundabout.

I guess Schwart has something to think about, too.

Okay, so how do we rescue the elf children?

You want me to set you up for a raid?

"No, that could make it into a fight near the carriage where those kids are being put on. That could put them in danger too"

Hmmm...... sure.

Because Schwartz is a swordsman, I'm still a gorilla ranger. [M]

If you shoot a magic bullet and it hits the elf kids you should help, you can't even see it.

But then what do I do......

"Yeah. Then I have a good idea."

Roofiggia smiles niggardly and confidently.

... I don't know. I only have a bad feeling...

The slave trader man was very satisfied.

It was when I accidentally passed near a deep-green forest, which I would not normally pass, trying to get from Wang Du to the local city.

We knew that the deep green forest was inhabited by elves who could sell high as slaves, but we also knew that their magic would not even allow us to reach the settlement.

If you put it in the murmur, you'll get lost and you won't be able to come out again.

Therefore, the man also unfortunately never got his hands on it.

But things were different today than usual.

How dare you show up from the elves when you try to pass next door while looking at the dark green forest unfortunately.

What was unfortunate was that all the elves that came out were less valuable children than adults, but if they were still visible elf children for both men and women, they would be able to sell high to the rich with those hobbies.

So the slave traders let the children be caught, remembering the grey guilds they were employing as escorts.

"Hey, employer. Hey."

"What?"

Even if the unexpected harvest was spoken to by a grey-guild man who usually insults the abusive, he was able to reply in a superior mood.

The man's head was full of tons of money he could get from selling the elves.

"I got a report from the guy who was fighting the enemy. There's a human being down this road."

"What?"

To the escort man's report, slave traders instantly undo rosy thoughts.

In the Kingdom of Evan, slavery is completely abolished.

Until now, some nobles had slaves behind them, even if ostensibly obsolete, but since Queen Nina took office, they have been thoroughly regulated and no such injustice has been acknowledged.

When I was depressed that I came to the kingdom for nothing, I was delighted because they caught the elves.

"What kind of people?

"Looks like a threesome. One is an aristocratic good man. The other two are women."

"Well, nobility..."

The slaver man narrows his eyes.

Nobles with gold are the ones who want men to be guests.

But the nobility of the present Evan kingdom cannot even have it, rather than buy slaves.

In the first place, if that nobleman was a purist who would not recognise slavery in any way, he would even jeopardize his position.

Given that, it would be auspicious not to come into contact with that noble man......

"The two women seem to be very upper-ball. Probably the daughter-in-law and servant of a good man."

"Hmm......!

A slave trader also tries to respond again to a man who reports with a niyanya and a inferior grin, shaking and laughing puffy of jawmeat over ugly.

If you're a beautiful woman, if you catch it and sell it, it could be gold.

That greed comes out, but I hold it down hard.

Sure, beauty is fascinating, but if it is truly aristocratic, the kingdom will embark on a full-scale investigation if it strikes.

That way, you'll never be able to operate in the Kingdom of Evan again.

It is already an unattractive land as a market, but there is a deep green forest where the elves live.

Like this one, the consideration of not being able to visit again because you might be able to capture an elf by chance was too great.

When the slave trader tries to tell him to give up, unfortunately...

"Besides, in the long run, those women, they had long, pointed ears. I think it's an elf, huh? Noblemen have quite a hobby, too."

"I'll take it."

Slave traders made quick decisions.
